Merge branch 'drop_monitor-Various-improvements-and-cleanups'

Ido Schimmel says:

====================
drop_monitor: Various improvements and cleanups

This patchset performs various improvements and cleanups in drop monitor
with no functional changes intended. There are no changes in these
patches relative to the RFC I sent two weeks ago [1].

A followup patchset will extend drop monitor with a packet alert mode in
which the dropped packet is notified to user space instead of just a
summary of recent drops. Subsequent patchsets will add the ability to
monitor hardware originated drops via drop monitor.
